A platform for research: civil engineering, architecture and urbanism
The study is a discussion of the possible usefulness of research (and development) concerning technical regulations suiting the particular business of building houses for families with limited resources. Not regulations for the sake of regulating, but because codes could pave the way for conventional housing finance, on a large scale, for the average family in Africa. The report thus addresses itself to housing finance managers, and to others - civil servants, architects and engineers, and, of course, researchers - preoccupied by housing conditions in developing countries.
